“Kathi Joy was my Executive Coach when I was CEO of a company that was growing at an explosive rate. Running a company – particularly a dynamic, fast-growing company – is a very complex task. To work through the growing pains the company and I were experiencing, I needed a good sounding board. Kathi was extremely good at discerning underlying issues, understanding both sides of a situation, and figuring out the nuts and bolts of solutions.”
Jim Campbell

“I first started working with Kathi after inheriting a team of people with a few members that needed to move up the curve in terms of their application of strategic thinking. “Kathi helped me understand and communicate to a broader group a skill that came naturally to me. Through her probing questions, Kathi and I were able to capture what it meant to be strategic and how a strategic partnership should be managed. The 20-page living document that resulted from our discussions eventually became a strategic plan and training vehicle for a full-day session. Kathi helped me organize my thinking in a way that conveyed best practices to a larger group in a repeatable way.”
Mike McAweeney
Vice President, Industry Alliances,
Cadence Design Systems

“Kathi, thanks for pushing us beyond our comfort zones in a professional and judicious manner. I have been through several of these (offsites), and it can get to be a “herding cats” situation. You kept us focused on the right issues, which allowed us to reach measurable objectives to take this company forward to stellar heights. “
